# Event Details - **Event Name**: Botany Evening Classes - Canterbury - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Thu, 03 Dec, 2026 at 08:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Our Botany Evening Classes cover the Botanical identification of wild and naturalised British plants.About this EventIn partnership with Canterbury Christ Church University we are running our botany evening classes at the CCCU campus in North Holmes Road in the Department of Human and Life Sciences in the Verena Holmes building.During these evening classes, you learn how to confidently identify and record plants and seek confirmation when necessary. You will identify plants in families and genera by the use of keys, specimens and descriptions.Each week concentrates on the identification of a genus of plants in Kent with specimens, PowerPoint presentations and a quiz on the previous week’s plants. Plants will be identified by comparison of specimens to find species, and the use of keys to assign names. Cribs to the identification of species in Kent will be produced.It would be useful if you could bring your own wildflower books and hand lenses, but some are available for use on the day. This venue is suitable for wheelchair users - if you have any specific accessibility issues, please contact us in advance.The classes are led by Alex Lockton, who has thirty years’ experience working as a lecturer in ecology at Birmingham University and Manchester Metropolitan University, as coordinator of the Botanical Society of the British Isles, and as an ecological consultant. He is author of The Flora and Vegetation of Shropshire (2015).Please note that this is not a beginners' course. Keys will be used to identify specimens and botanical terms used.For further information, please visit the Study Days page of the Kent Wildlife Trust website. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/canterbury/botany-evening-classes-canterbury/100001987048340075 - **Event Categories**: workshops, art, literary-art, contests, science-fair - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Canterbury Christ Church University (North Holmes Road Campus) - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 160, max: 160, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Canterbury - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Canterbury Christ Church University (North Holmes Road Campus) - **lat**: 51.2801084 - **long**: 1.090151399999968 - **full address**: Canterbury Christ Church University (North Holmes Road Campus), North Holmes Road, Canterbury, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Botany Evening Classes - Canterbury - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/8de57d940c75e5b571441ccee7363e8a7c7585a3c283f9f5d52c2562e283be53-rimg-w1200-h974-dc171718-gmir.jpg?v=1776095175 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Botany Evening Classes - Canterbury being held? - **A:** Botany Evening Classes - Canterbury takes place on Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 03 Dec, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Canterbury Christ Church University (North Holmes Road Campus), North Holmes Road, Canterbury, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Botany Evening Classes - Canterbury? - **A:** Botany Evening Classes - Canterbury is organized by Kent Wildlife Trust - Education & Training. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
